Have rust version pinned in a single place #221

Closed pzmarzly closed 5 years ago

pzmarzly commented 5 years ago

Closes #209

Currently I'm waiting for CI, I'll remove the [WIP] once I'm sure it can be merged.

pzmarzly commented 5 years ago

I think #221 and #214 could be merged, hopefully there won't be any conflicts.

@haposan: Hi, what's up? Thanks for visiting! First - note that your message ended up inside the discussion of a closed pull request. This is a pretty unfortunate place to write a question, because there is a danger it will go unnoticed. Usually a better place to send questions or issues is at the issues page, here: https://github.com/freedomlayer/offst/issues

About how to run Offst: You can get some instructions about how to run the first release here: https://www.freedomlayer.org/offst/offst-release/ However, my advice for you is to wait a bit. We are working on releasing the next version which implements a new protocol (That is incompatible with the previous release). It should also include an easier to use client, hopefully with GUI, which should be more fun to use than the current command line based client. You can subscribe to the mailing list at freedomlayer.org, and you will get a notice when the next release is ready.

@real: thanks for the advice and info. @everyone : sorry to post the question at wrong channel. I'm trying to familiarize my self with the Offst implementation and infrastructure. It has a unique concept. Hopefully I can start contributing early next month. @everyone, please let me know what possible roles I might be able to contribute. I'm a developer (using c/c++ and Java) and just learn Rust. Please be easy on me 😁🙏.

Regards, Haposan

@haposan: Thank you for offering your help! I hope to be able to prepare you something interesting to do when you have the time. The most up to date document about how Offst works internally is the "atomic payments redesign", which can be found here: https://github.com/freedomlayer/offst/blob/master/doc/docs/atomic_proposal.md

This part mostly documents the offst-funder crate. Unfortunately the rest of Offst is currently less documented. Things are still changing often.

After reading this document, the next thing you can do is trying to make the repository compile on your machine. You can find instructions about how to do this here: https://github.com/freedomlayer/offst/blob/master/README.md

If you don't understand something or something doesn't work for you, don't hesitate to open an issue.
